DETAILED DESCRIPTION
The sauna has been a central and respected place in Finnish life for centuries, a place of birth and death, life and celebration. The word “hiisi” is old Finnish for a sacred place, a place of sacrifice or mystical power – the perfect family name for our sauna tents and accessories.
The Hiisi 2 is a renewed design based on the old Hikimaja. The tent itself is actually a box with a sloping roof, not a center post. The corner poles are put into tubes on the outside of the tent, so that it is less crowded inside. The ceiling and wall materials are fire retardant for safety, but not fireproof, so sparks and flames will burn holes in them, so be careful.
The interior is large enough for a double sofa, two people and the stove. The stove is placed in the far right corner, as seen from the entrance. The sofa is placed against the left wall, under the window. The window along the top edge of the sofa wall provides some light and a chance to look outside. The entrance is a simple zippered slot. A piece of cord is attached to the ceiling seam of the back wall, this is an attachment point for a sauna thermometer to help you monitor the temperature and not overheat the tent.
The tent, poles and stakes can be neatly transported in a carrying case. Shoulder straps make it possible to carry a backpack and free up your hands for stoves or other accessories.
INSTRUCTIONS – READ BEFORE USE!
We recommend two to four people to set up the Hiisi 2. You need a hammer or something similar to hit the poles in the ground. We recommend using a sauna thermometer up to 100°C to prevent overheating and help you get the perfect temperature.
1. Find a suitable flat spot approx. 3.5 x 3.5 m, beware of dangers:
- Dry grass and undergrowth, trees and branches (fire hazard).
- Uneven surface (stove or users may stumble and fall).
2. Unpack the tent canvas and insert the corner poles into the covers.
3. Spread the tent cloth with the poles approximately where you want it.
4. Aim one or two opposite corners at once:
- Hammer a pole into the ground approx. 140/160 cm (wall height) from the corner.
- Attach the corner guy line with a reliable knot to the pole.
- Repeat until all the corners are in place and each shaving cord is fastened to the ground.
5. Inspect the tent, correct if necessary by adjusting the poles, poles and ropes.
6. Install the stove and the sofa.
7. If necessary, attach a sauna thermometer up to 100°C to the line hanging from the ceiling.
- The thermometer should hang 140 cm above the ground.
8. Do not heat the interior above 75 ° C, extreme overheating can damage the tent and is unnecessary – it is steam that makes the sauna pleasant, not hot air.
9. Enjoy (with caution)!
Warnings:
This sauna tent is designed to be heated with the Savotta wood stove and stone rack. With improper use, the heated heater can cause numerous dangers and physical injury:
- Savotta sauna tents are not designed for long-term stationary use and must be disassembled, cleaned, dried and stored indoors between uses. Sunlight will damage the substances over time. If you leave a tent upright for a few months, it will damage and any damage resulting from this type of abuse is not covered by our warranty.
- To prevent damage to the tent from falling sparks, the chimney top should protrude 100 cm above the chimney gate. We recommend burning hardwood to minimize the risk of sparks.
- Although the fabrics are fire retardant and self-extinguishing, they are not refractory – sparks and flames will damage the substance and burn holes in the fabric. Heater-heated tents will suffer from burnt holes due to sparks that touch the fabric during normal use. This is normal wear and tear and can be easily repaired if necessary. Our warranty does not cover fire damage due to normal or incorrect use.
- Only use stones intended for sauna use. Improper stones, when heated, can crack and cause injuries from flying shrapnel.
- Sparks and heat from the stove can set fire to combustible material nearby, easily remove combustible material in and near the tent before use.
- Always keep a large bucket of water or a fire extinguisher within seconds range of the tent when the stove is hot, be prepared to put out any fire!
- The stove and stones are extremely hot when heated and can cause injuries when touched!
- After use, inspect the soil for any hot embers and extinguish it with water.
